[Smt. Chhanda asked: clearing mind - PadaAnamaskaram Swami, in my earlier question on "How can students inculcate real knowledge into their daily lives?" probably I could not put the question properly. What I meant to say was only from spiritual knowledge point of view. Please take the pain again to explain it in the spiritual line and forgive me for not able to put my question clearly. Thank You my Lord, at Your divine lotus feet, Chhanda]
Swami replied:- The student shall be encouraged and advised to build up his/her career to establish themselves in worldly life or Pravrutti. If they have well settled background of property and wealth, the student can divert a part of the time and energy towards Nivrutti or spiritual life. If the student is to depend on job only for livelihood, the student shall be encouraged to concentrate on the academic career that establishes a job for his/her livelihood. The basic stage for spiritual life is very important and without strong basic stage, the spiritual life becomes weak and will be misunderstood by the public. After getting established in Pravrutti, one can fully concentrate on Nivrutti. The student shall be informed about all the above statements and shall be advised that the ultimate aim of this human life is only to please God and get His grace. The student can be involved in divine songs on God to develop devotion, which helps the student to succeed in establishing the basic stage in Pravrutti.
